    Sony Taking the camera phone to a whole new level!!

    Don't really see the point in these, if you're going to carry lenses around why not just take a DSLR!

    Pretty pleased (boasting)

    Like the second one and how it's open to interpretation. For me, I'm waiting for some old english soldiers to come across the scene with canons etc.

    Sunset photos

    Sun setting you'll be fine. Rarely do you look directly at the sun anyway as the surrounding will be more important.

    Tripods

    Ditto the above. Recently travelled to Amshterdam and Berlin. KLM and British Airways, neither would allow the tripod as carry on - metal poles big no no (I had a small roller banner which had to be checked also due to the metal/plastic supporting poles).

    Gig photo advice

    Hey Lee, Well I suppose the short answer is that if you want the gig, you'll have to accept their terms so long as the copyright remains with you, they are just dictating the usage. Might be worth asking if there's a time limit on the images having to carry their watermark perhaps. G

    D7100 Upgrade

    Hi Ashley, I've had the D7000 from new but not tried out the D7100. Prior to this I had a D90. I can honestly say that for me the upgrade from from D90 to the D7000 was remarkable. IQ, noise and dynamic range (much punchier) was a massive improvement. I have comfortably shot at over 1500ISO...

    What lens for D300 up to £250?

    I've got the Tamron that's been mentioned and to be honest I've not been that pleased with it. I think the build quality is poor, feels very plasticy (because it is lol) and loose. Just doesn't feel anywhere as good as the Nikon build or even the Sigma. IQ has been good but I'm really...

    First Music Shoot - Royal Festival Hall

    Hi All, Been a long time since I've been on TP but back for some advice and hopefully some input from my side too. Having been trying for a while to get the business going, we've been given an opportunity to shoot Thomas Dolby (and others) at the Vintage at the Royal Festival Hall on...

    ** UPDATED ** HELP from MacBook 'sperts please ... ??? MacGod Cowasaki sorts me out !

    Just to repeat an earlier - VM Ware is excellent, easily the best Windows on Mac option there is. Try the demo out and see what you think.

    Home Studio Kit - Novice doing portraiture

    Having just bought my first lights, thought I'd chip in. I went for two Interfit 150 MKII kits (4 heads, 2 brollies, two sb'd) in the end with a roller bag and remote trigger thrown in for £449. Have a 10ft x 9ft white sheet which is working well for the background, but could do with having more...

    Top Gear v Fifth Gear

    Don't you just always get the feeling with 5th gear that they are trying too hard. Persistence over talent and all that! TG is better entertainment, 5th Gear tries to run 'proper' reviews, but I can't stand the people doing the reviewing!
